Control Room APIs

The Automation Anywhere Control Room provides APIs that enable you to customize how you (and your automations) interact with Automation Anywhere.

Important:
  • From Automation 360 v.34, the following WLM API endpoints are deprecated and are planned to be discontinued (EoL) along with the v.41 release :
    • POST /v3/wlm/workitemmodel
    • GET /v3/wlm/workitemmodels/{id}
    • GET /v3/wlm/queues/{id}
    • POST /v3/wlm/queues/{id}/consumers
    • POST /v3/wlm/queues/{id}/participants
    • PUT /v3/wlm/queues/{id}/members/{userId}
    • POST /v3/wlm/queues/{id}/file
    • PUT /v3/wlm/queues/{id}/workitems/{workItemId}
    Replace the above API endpoints with the following API endpoints:
    • POST /v4/wlm/workitemmodel
    • GET /v4/wlm/workitemmodels/{id}
    • GET /v4/wlm/queues/{id}
    • POST /v4/wlm/queues/{id}/consumers
    • POST /v4/wlm/queues/{id}/participants
    • PUT /v4/wlm/queues/{id}/members/{userId}
    • POST /v4/wlm/queues/{id}/file
    • PUT /v4/wlm/queues/{id}/workitems/{workItemId}
  • From Automation 360 v.34, the Bot Scheduler API endpoints: /v1/schedule/automations are deprecated and are replaced with /v2/schedule/automations. The v1 version is planned to be discontinued (EoL) in January 2028.

You can view and navigate to all the Control Room API modules and the associated endpoints in the following API reference sections.

The different API versions below represent different iterations of APIs over time. As an API evolves, new features or improvements are introduced. To manage these changes and maintain compatibility with existing applications, developers use versioning.

Repository Management API Use the Repository Management APIs to perform specific tasks on objects (bots, folders, and files) that you have permission to access in the Control Room.
BotInsight API Use the Bot Insight APIs to access real-time business insights and digital workforce performance data to use content-level productivity data from the automations that are deployed.
BLM API Use the Bot Lifecycle Management (BLM) APIs to export and import bots with dependent files and command packages for comprehensive automation lifecycle management.
Device Pool API Use the Device Pool APIs to create, list, update, and delete device pools.
License API Use the License APIs to retrieve Control Room license details and manually sync the Control Room with the license server after license reallocation or renewal.
Process Composer API Use the Processor Composer APIs to create a new request from processes, retrieve initial form, and request by reference ID.
Automations API Use the v2 Bot Scheduler APIs (Automation APIs) to create, update, delete, and return details on scheduled automations.
Policy Management API Use the v2 Policy Management APIs to manage code analysis, policies, and rules within Control Room.

v3 Endpoints

Modules Description
Bot deploy API Use the v3 Bot Deploy API to deploy bots from the public workspace to Bot Runner devices.
Workload Management API Use the v3 Workload Management (WLM) APIs to programmatically manage and create work item models, queues, work items, and automations in your Control Room.
Migration API (Bot migration) Use the v3 migration APIs to migrate TaskBots and MetaBots that were created in Enterprise client versions Enterprise 11 and Enterprise 10 to Automation 360.
Bot Execution Orchestrator API Use the v3 Bot Execution Orchestrator APIs to monitor automation activity progress.

v4 Endpoints

Modules Description
Bot deploy API (V4) Use the v4 Bot Deploy API to deploy bots from the public workspace to Bot Runner devices.
Workload Management API Use the v4 Workload Management (WLM) APIs to programmatically manage and create work item models, queues, work items, and automations in your Control Room.
Migration API (Bot migration) Use the v4 migration APIs to migrate TaskBots and MetaBots that were created in Enterprise client versions Enterprise 11 and Enterprise 10 to Automation 360.
Note: To avoid errors and ensure smooth processing of your requests, remember that all JSON parameter names are case-sensitive. For more information, refer to the relevant sections of the API reference documentation for clear guidelines and examples to help you construct your queries and request bodies with the correct casing.

Getting started with Control Room APIs

All requests must include an X-Authorization header with the JSON authentication token, or an Authorization header with a Bearer token for requests to the Control Room. The following sections provide details about the Control Room APIs available endpoints, methods, resources, authentication protocols, parameters, and headers, as well as examples of common requests and responses.

Note: The Bearer token is supported as of the Automation 360 v.27 release and later. It is unsupported and ignored in any previous releases. You must obtain the Bearer token from our OAuth services. To authorize your access, use either X-Authorization (using Authentication API) or Authorization (using OAuth). You cannot use both in the same API.
You can use Control Room Swagger documentation to view and run the APIs. Access the Control Room Swagger documentation by using the link https://{control-room}/swagger/ and replace {control-room} with your Control Room instance. The following sections provide useful information about how to write a Control RoomAPI request:

API deprecation policy

API の非推奨 は、API の使用が今では推奨されていないものの、機能していることを示します。 API の対応しているより新しいバージョンに移行することが奨励されます。 APIは、スムーズな移行を可能にするために、エンドオブライフ(EoL)日およびリリースバージョンまで利用可能です。

API EoL (サポート終了) は、API が機能しなくなり、使用できなくなる日付とリリースバージョンを示します。 開発者は、この日付までにサポートされている最新バージョンの API への移行を完了している必要があります。

次のシナリオではAPIの非推奨化が必要になるかもしれません。

  • セキュリティ脆弱性: 古いAPIバージョンには、最新のバージョンで修正された既知のセキュリティ脆弱性が含まれています。
  • 技術的負債 古いAPIバージョンは、もはやサポートされていない古い技術、アプローチ、またはフレームワークに基づいて構築される可能性があり、メンテナンスや拡張が困難になります。
  • パフォーマンス: 古いAPIバージョンは、現代の事例や規模の拡大に最適化されておらず、パフォーマンスの低下や応答時間の遅延を引き起こします。
  • ユーザーエクスペリエンス: 廃止されたAPIバージョンには、ユーザーがナビゲートするのが難しくなる混乱したまたは冗長なエンドポイントが含まれています。

API は最低2年間サポートされます。 非推奨の発表から2年後、API は少なくともさらに1年間(4回のリリース)利用可能であり、新しいバージョンに移行するための十分な時間を提供します。

Note: 上記のポリシーは、公開 API のセキュリティ脆弱性による非推奨には適用されません。 そのような場合、リスクを軽減するために即時の対応が必要でありま。当社はできるだけ早くこの変更をお知らせするよう努めます。
